The Real Mind-Blowing Origin of Astrology
|
With all the hoopla over a "new" astrology sign and the
erroneous notion that everyone's astrology sign is not what they think
it is, I'd like to assure you that you are the sign you've always
thought you are and to help you calm down I'm going to tell you what
could easily pass for a bedtime story about the Secret Origin of
Astrology. It's a mind-blowing concept based on the life-long work of
my friend, the recently deceased and already much-missed Zecharia
Sitchin, author of "The 12th Planet" series of books that have sold
millions of copies in dozens of languages and are just about the most
complete and amazing "unified field theory" of human history, including
the origin of human beings, the "gods and goddesses," and astrology. Once
upon a time long ago, four billion years ago give or take a few
million, our Sun's gravitational pull attracted into our solar system a
planet, complete with moons, that had been expelled from another solar
system. This planet came barreling through our solar system and
wreaked quite a good deal of havoc with the planets, especially the
planet that was to become our Earth. One of the
invading planet's moons actually hit the primordial and much bigger
Earth, knocking it out of the orbit that it was in and blasting a good
portion of the planet into asteroids - in fact the asteroid belt is
roughly where Earth used to orbit. Earth and the moon got knocked to
roughly where they are now, with Earth tilted at the 23 degree angle
that gives us the seasons. The Invading Planet and its
moons got captured by our Sun's gravity and eventually established a
very long and elliptical orbit of approximately 3,600 Earth years -
1,800 out and 1,800 back, crossing between the orbits of Jupiter and
Mars every 3,600 years. Why is there no record of this Invading Planet?
There is. Every time you see an image of a winged disk carved into
ancient buildings, you're looking at the symbol of this "Planet of the
Crossing," which was known to everyone since ancient times. Here
comes one of the most mind-blowing concepts of Sitchin's research: The
seed(s) of life as we know it originated on that Invading Planet and
some of that life essence transferred onto Earth in the great cosmic
battle that put Earth in its present orbit, a battle described
allegorically in the great Hindu epic of the Gods, The Bhagavad Gītā
and literally in the Sumerian Creation Myth, Enuma Elish. The
Sumerians lived about six thousand years ago - the Hebrew calendar,
whose year is now 5771, originated with the Sumerian calendar (Abraham's
father was a priest of Ur, a major Sumerian city). The Sumerians
called Earth the Seventh Planet because they counted from the outside
in, with Pluto being first, then Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter,
Mars, and the Earth. How did they know about planets and that the
planets revolved around the Sun, and not the other way around? They
wrote that "Everything we know, the gods of our fathers have told us." Who
were these gods of their fathers? They were a few of the beings who
had evolved on the Invading Planet, sent to Earth to supply the
Invading Planet with gold to be pulverized and suspended in their
atmosphere to keep it from dissipating during its trips through deep
space. If that sounds far-fetched, know that suspending gold particles
in our atmosphere is one of the ideas scientists came up with to close
the hole in our Earthly ozone layer. These gold miners
from space had come here and landed in Mesopotamia, modern day Iraq,
because in those days oil bubbled on the surface in its marshes and
could be used to power machines to extract gold from seawater. But that
method didn't work very well, so they went "down" into "the lower
world," southern Africa being the lower part of Earth, and dug gold
mines. FYI, remains of gold mining operations that are over 100,000
years old have been found in South Africa. But these
ancient astronaut gold-miners rebelled violently at the back-braking
work in the lower world, the origin of our concept of Hell. The two
brothers who were in charge of the Earth mission sent for their father,
who everyone would listen to. It was decided that their sister, a
brilliant scientist, would attempt to fix their genetic makeup on a
suitable animal that had evolved on Earth and had been seen in the
area. Her doing this is why the puzzle of The Missing Link of human
evolution exists: we jumped big-time, thanks to her genetic
engineering, though the first humans were bred in the wombs of
goddesses, since early humans were sterile, like mules. When
the goddesses, themselves, grew weary of cranking out humans to do the
suffering in the mines, the great goddess scientist and her brother,
the oldest but yet second in command on Earth and also a scientist,
figured out how to make the true Adam, whom the Sumerians called Adapa,
who was able to reproduce and have children. This second in command
scientist's nickname was The Snake, his symbol was the Caduceus, the
symbol of medicine where two snakes coil around a staff, also
symbolizing the DNA molecule that he and his sister manipulated to
create human beings in their image (sound familiar?) The first lines of
our Genesis are from the Sumerian myths and that is why our bible says
"Let us make man in our image." That's who "they" were! When
the brother in charge found out that humans could reproduce, he became
enraged and threw all humans out of the Ed-en, placing a "flaming
sword" weapon to keep them from coming back. This is the origin of the
Garden of Eden myth, the Snake being the older, second in command
brother and, in this case, the younger, first in command brother being
the angry God. The difference in the angry brother and the human-loving
(in more ways than one!) nice brother is the explanation of why the
God of the Hebrew bible seems so two-faced, enraged one day and loving
humans the next. FYI, the people of the Invading Planet, whom the
Sumerians called the "Annunaki," or "those who from heaven to Earth
have come," did, themselves, believe in a Creator God. They may have
believed in a Creator Goddess, but after all this time and misogyny
it's hard to say. What I've read of the gods makes them sound pretty
damn sexist. These two brothers had wives and children
and their children had children. And to complicate matters, these
"gods and goddesses" lived a tremendously long time. Remember, their
"year" around the Sun took 3,600 Earth years and they had evolved under
those conditions. To them, the rising and setting of our Sun and our
years where dizzying and so they stayed in their magnificent temple
palaces a lot to keep from getting sickened by the rapid passage of the
hours. The "gods and goddesses" had humans to work
for them and supply them with what they needed. If fact, Zecharia
Sitchin often said that the origin of the word "worship" was "to work
for." And since they lived a long time, these were literally the gods
of the humans' fathers, the same gods that had been around when their
fathers were alive and their fathers before them and so on. But
these gods and goddesses were like us, imperfect, sometimes petty and
desirous of power. There came a time when the sons and grandsons of the
two brothers fought, using human armies like chess pieces to advance
their cause. Sitchin details this time, roughly four thousand years ago,
in his book "The Wars of Gods and Men." This war had
terrible consequences because nuclear weapons were used. The story of
Sodom and Gomorrah, where the cities are vaporized and Lot's wife
turned into a pillar of ash, is based on a nuclear blast. There is a
physical record of this blast in the Sinai where, when viewed from
space, you can see the circular scar where the most valuable prize on
Earth, the main Space Port, was located and destroyed. There are also
great bands of black pebbles near the Dead Sea, pebbles that are only
found where a nuclear blast has occurred. The nuclear
fallout destroyed the people of Sumeria and many other people in the
area. The peace making process that followed this great tragedy called
for power to pass from one god to another every 2200 years, a time to
be determined by what is know as The Precession of the Equinoxes, which
is the phenomena that causes the first day of Spring, the Vernal
Equinox and the first degree of the Sign of Aries, to move backwards
through the constellations by one whole astrology sign every 2200
years. That is what we are talking about when we say we are entering the
Age of Aquarius. The first day of spring and Western Astrology's first
degree of Aries now occur when the Sun is in the constellation of
Aquarius (almost). Obviously, with twelve power hungry
gods, including one power-hungry goddess, Innana/Ishtar, chomping at
the bit to assume control over Earth, the timing of the precession of
the Equinoxes was crucially important. So important that the
constellations were drawn to represent the symbols of the Twelve Power
Gods so when the first day of spring occurred with the Sun being seen
as in a particular constellation, the god or goddess whose symbol was
that constellation held dominion on Earth and could not be challenged.
These twelve symbols became the Signs of the Zodiac. And observatories
were built all over the Earth to insure that power would be transferred
at the right time. The observatories of Machu Picchu, Stonehenge,
Chichen Itza and all the others around the world were constructed for
this crucial purpose. So, if the signs of the zodiac
were originally created out of the symbols the twelve power Gods had
already taken as their own, why does astrology work? How can it predict
personality and events? You've got me there, but I
know it does because I've used it for years to do just that, understand
personality and predict the future. But I don't know why it works and
yes, that is more than a little uncomfortable. But hey, there is so
much about life that is unknown, even life here on Earth, let alone
under the sea and in the Universe. I've got some theories about it, but
they will have to wait for another blog and another time. Until then,
if your curiosity has been piqued by this bed-time story, a story I
hold to be true, then read all of Zecharia Sitchin's works, starting
with Genesis Revisited, IMHO. You'll have a blast and you may come to
agree with him, as I have. Enjoy! |
